Many were critical of the Australian, including Brad Gilbert, Martina Navratilova and Pat Cash, while others were understanding, like VICE, which compared Tomic's troubles with the ones many employees struggle with.
"I'm bored at the office. Closing the big deal doesn't leave me particularly fulfilled. Win or lose, the days all feel sort of the same, and frankly, I know I'm halfway to a comfortable retirement."

Tomic was also fined $15,000 by the ITF for unsportsmanlike conduct. It is safe to say that this is one of the lowest moments of the 24-year-old’s career, especially considering Head stood behind Maria Sharapova when the former world No. 1 was suspended for a doping violation.
